Will they ever get home?

This is Nic’s way of getting back on the Vampire Council. They kicked him off in 1988, when it turned out he only thought he was a vampire.

The 1972 version is the more faithful adaptation (maybe because Anthony Shaffer adapted his own script), but the 2007 remake is worth watching, if only to see what changes Harold Pinter made to the script and to see how Caine manages to play Andrew. As an addendum to the 1972 film, it works; as a replacement for it,…

Now We Are Five.

If you want to prep for Soldiers of Illusions on October 19, Burden of Dreams, directed by Les Blank, is currently streaming on Amazon Prime.

I was Jackie Daytona, normal human bartender, last year. This year, I’m going as Harry DuBois from Disco Elysium. (Cheap costumes are the best costumes)

There-um- already IS a musical based on The Oregon Trail. It’s called The Trail to Oregon with music and lyrics by Jeff Blim, and book by Jeff Blim, Matt Lang, and Nick Lang (additional music by Drew De Four) and was produced by StarKid Productions (the ones who brought you the Harry Potter musical). And here it is:

The series has been going downhill ever since they killed Diana off. What were they thinking?

Didn’t think much of that final episode. I mean, come on, introducing a new Prime Minister in the last hour named Liz , just so Elizabeth could reflect on her legacy. How cliched. And yeah, okay, Charles becomes king, which is supposed to be the end of his character arc, but it happened too late in the story for us to…

And the perfect actor to play Boris Johnson would have been Alfred Hawthorne Hill, but he’s been dead since the ‘90s.

And 10 years from then is now, remember, so we can jump to the happy ending without needing flying cars in the background (just electric ones).

And why that bizarre title? Neil Simon wrote a play, God’s Favorite, that was supposed to be his riff on the Book of Job, and it turned out to be one of the biggest flops of his career. Was Falcone intentionally trying to evoke that trainwreck?

Ah, I see your mistake! No it’s based on the DC character Wesley Dodds,  or Garrett Sandford, or Hector Hall (or possibly Sandy Hawkins). 

And let’s not forget Peter Davidson. (Dr Who Magazine Issue 61)

Maybe he said “Lick me in the Arse.” No, wait, that was the other guy. Moe somebody.

Kim getting disbarred and jailed, instead of Jimmy, because one of their schemes fell apart seems like a very appropriate turn of events. If, as previous commenters have suggested, Kim dying would have caused Jimmy to have left Albuquerque for ever, Kim going to jail might be the impetus to make him go full Saul…

Of all the characters in Better Call Saul that weren’t in Breaking Bad, the only one that I had never, ever worried about was Howard . . . until the final few minutes of last season. Now I’m (almost) as worried about him as I am about Kim and Nacho.

Actually, if they don’t introduce Sherlock Holmes’ scientist friend Professor Challenger, they’re not even trying. ( For an extra deep cut, they could argue about Spiritualism.)

There will now be a moment of silence while we all contemplate what would have happened if Todd had said Alien Nation was one of his favorite movies.

I have gotten back into Saturday Night Live, solely because of your careful curation. I spend Sunday mornings watching the sketches you recommend and skipping the rest. So I may just go back to my previous status of just thinking “Well, it’s all crap” and just avoid it all together without you to guide me. I’m sure…
